Notwithstanding the foregoing, we     will have no obligation under this paragraph and will not otherwise be     liable to the extent the claim is based on: (a) use of the Service in combination     with any hardware, software, data, content, or other component not     provided by us (other than equipment required for use of the Service as     permitted hereunder); (b) Your Content; or (c) use of the Service other     than in accordance with these Terms; or (ii) is based on or alleges our     violation of applicable laws.

The     indemnifying party will have the right to assume control of the defense     and settlement of the claim (provided that the prior, written agreement of     the Indemnified Person will be required in order to enter into any     settlement or compromise that does not include a full release of the     indemnified party or that requires any payment or admission of wrongdoing     by the Indemnified Person), in which case the Indemnified Person (i) will     provide reasonable assistance at the indemnifying party’s reasonable     expense and (ii) may employ counsel at its own expense. If we believe our     intellectual property is or may become the subject of a claim of     infringement or misappropriation, we may, at our option and expense,     procure for the right to use the intellectual property, or modify or     replace the intellectual property to make it non-infringing and     functionally equivalent. If we reasonably conclude that neither of these     alternatives is reasonably available, we may require the return or     destruction of its intellectual property upon written request and the     termination of these Terms to the extent performance is based upon or     involves the use of such intellectual property, in which case you would be     entitled to a refund of any prepaid fees for the period after termination.

20.Agreement to Arbitrate; Class Waiver

We want to address your concerns or issues before filing a claim against Romeano. Please contact us at hey@romeano.com.We'll contact you by email to informally resolve the dispute. You or Romeano may start a formal dispute resolution process if a dispute is not resolved within 30 days of your submission.

YOU MAY ONLY RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH US ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND YOU WILL NOT BRING A CLAIM AS A PLAINTIFF OR A CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION(E.G., CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS).

Any claim relating to these Terms that is not resolved through our informal process, or as set forth below, will be resolved finally and exclusively by binding individual arbitration with a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) administered by the American Arbitration Association (https://www.adr.org) according to this Section and the applicable arbitration rules for that forum. The Arbitrator shall be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether the Terms are enforceable, unconscionable or illusory and any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, or estoppel. Subject to applicable jurisdictional requirements, you may elect to pursue your claim in your local small-claims court rather than through arbitration so long as your matter remains in small claims court and proceeds only on an individual (non-class or non-representative) basis. The FederalArbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, fully applies. If you are a consumer bringing a claim relating to a transaction intended for a personal, household, or family use, any arbitration hearing will occur within the county where you reside. Otherwise, any arbitration hearing will occur in San Francisco, California, or another mutually agreeable location. The arbitrator’s award will be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. While an arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief, the Arbitrator may do so only with respect to the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual party’s claim. An Arbitrator’s decision and judgment thereon will not have a precedential or collateral estoppel effect in any other case or arbitration. Romeano will reimburse the arbitration fees due to the AmericanArbitration Association for individual arbitrations brought in accordance with this section for all claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the Arbitrator determines that your claims were frivolous. If you prevail on any claim for which you are legally entitled to attorney’s fees, you may seek to recover those fees from the arbitrator. For any claim where you are seeking relief, we will not seek to have you pay our attorney’s fees, even if fees might otherwise be awarded, unless the Arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous. For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to you and Romeano also include respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors, successors and assigns as well as authorized users or beneficiaries of the Services. Subject to and without waiver of the arbitration provisions above, you agree that any judicial proceedings (other than small claims actions in consumer cases as discussed above) will be brought in and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state courts in the City and County of San Francisco, California, or federal court for the Northern District of California. If any part of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that part will be construed to reflect the parties’ original intent, and the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect.

Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of theService, or to enforce intellectual property rights (e.g., copyright, trademark, trade secret, or patent rights) without first engaging in our informal dispute resolution process or arbitration. In the event this agreement to arbitrate does not apply to you or your claim, any judicial proceeding will be brought in the federal or state courts of San Francisco County, California.You and Romeano agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in San Francisco, California.  REGARDLESS OF ANY STATUTE OR LAWTO THE CONTRARY, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BROUGHT BY YOU ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO USE OF THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE OR BE FOREVER BARRED.

Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, users of the Service from California are entitled to the following specific consumer rights notice: The Complaint Assistance Unit of theDivision of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs may be contacted in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (916) 445-1254 or (800) 952-5210.

21. General

We may provide notices to you via either email or regular mail.

These Terms and the relationship between you and Romeano shall be governed by the laws of theState of California without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and Romeano agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within California. The failure of Romeano to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of these Terms). You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or other services, third-party content or third-party software. If any provision of these Terms or incorporated documents are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action brought by you arising out of or related to use of theService or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

Further, more than one person's claims may not be consolidated under any circumstances, in any form of any class or representative proceeding or otherwise.
